After the alarm was lifted, Ye Ling and Duan Yu did not return immediately, but decided to explore a cultivation relic that they had discovered before.
It is said that there are special materials there that can improve the performance of mechas.
The two of them drove mechas and traveled through the intricate passages of the ruins.
The light emitted by the energy crystal illuminated the surroundings, and ancient runes on the walls shone with a mysterious luster.
"This place is eerie and scary. I always feel a little uneasy." Ye Ling rubbed his arms and complained.
Duan Yu gripped the joystick tightly and glanced around vigilantly, "Be careful, the energy fluctuations in this place are very unstable."
Not long after they walked, an empty hall appeared in front of them.
In the center of the hall, a sphere emitting soft light is suspended. It rotates slowly and emits a strange energy fluctuation.
"Wow! What kind of treasure is this?" Ye Ling's eyes lit up instantly. This thing looks awesome!
"Be careful!" Duan Yu grabbed Ye Ling and protected her behind him.
At this moment, several figures walked out from the shadow of the hall, led by a white-haired old man, who was Elder Xuanqing who was guarding the ruins.
"Who dares to trespass into the ruins of cultivation!" Elder Xuanqing shouted sternly, followed by several young disciples of cultivation, one of whom was Lin Yu.
"We are here to look for materials to improve the performance of the mecha." Ye Ling explained.
"Hmph! How can a filthy thing like a mecha set foot on such a sacred relic!" Elder Xuanqing said with disdain, "Leave immediately, or don't blame me for being rude!"
Ye Ling retorted unconvincedly: "Mecha and cultivation are not mutually exclusive. The fusion of the two may bring about a more powerful force and better protect our world!"
When Lin Yu heard Ye Ling's words, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes. He always felt that the elders' rejection of mechas was a bit extreme.
"Elder, maybe Miss Ye is right..." Lin Yu spoke bravely.
"Shut up!" Elder Xuanqing shouted angrily, "When did it become your turn to question my decision?"
Lin Yu was so frightened by the elder's scolding that he dared not speak again, but Ye Ling noticed the hesitation in his eyes.
"Elder, you might as well let us give it a try. Maybe we will get unexpected results." Ye Ling tried to persuade Elder Xuanqing again.
However, Elder Xuanqing's attitude was very firm: "Impossible! You must leave here immediately!"
The atmosphere was tense. At this moment, Brother Zhou stepped forward, pointed at Lin Yu and said sternly: "Lin Yu, you dare to go against the wishes of the elders!"
Senior Brother Zhou pointed at Lin Yu's nose, and his saliva was almost spraying on his face.
"Lin Yu, you are such a traitor! The elder treats you well, and you dare to contradict him for an outsider!"
Lin Yu blushed and retorted with his neck stiff: "I... I just think the elders are too prejudiced against mechas! Ye Ling's mecha is obviously very powerful. In the Mecha King Challenge..."
"Shut up! What's the big deal about the Mecha King Challenge? It's just some petty brawl! It's no match for true cultivation power!" Senior Brother Zhou curled his lips in disdain. "Did you fall for this woman's sweet talk, boy?"
The two of them argued more and more fiercely and were about to fight.
Ye Ling rolled her eyes. What the hell was going on?
She just wanted to get some materials to upgrade her mecha, so how did it turn into a large-scale Shura battlefield?
Duan Yu stood beside Ye Ling, observing the surrounding situation calmly.
He always felt that something was wrong, and the energy fluctuations in the ruins were becoming more and more strange.
At this moment, Su Ran, who was floating in the air, suddenly shone brightly, and a strange energy wave spread out in all directions with it as the center.
Caught off guard, Elder Xuanqing and others were shocked by this energy and retreated again and again. Even the quarrel between Senior Brother Zhou and Lin Yu came to an abrupt end.
The light faded, and the air around Su Ran seemed to become distorted, and some strange scenes could be vaguely seen flashing in it.
Elder Xuanqing and others' expressions changed drastically. They all took out their magic weapons and stared at Su Ran vigilantly.
"What's going on?" Ye Ling murmured to herself. She felt that the energy fluctuations emitted by Su Ran seemed to resonate with some power in her body.
Duan Yu grabbed Ye Ling's hand and said in a deep voice: "Be careful, this thing is not simple."
Su Ran slowly rotated, the light flickering, as if breathing.
Suddenly, it stopped spinning and a beam of light shot straight towards Ye Ling.
Ye Ling subconsciously closed her eyes, but the expected impact did not come. Instead, she felt a warm energy flowing into her body.
When she opened her eyes again, she found that Su Ran's light had dimmed and the surrounding scene had returned to normal.
However, she felt that a wonderful connection seemed to have been established between her and Su Ran.
"What... is going on?" Elder Xuanqing looked at Ye Ling in surprise and doubt. "What... did you do to it?"
Before Ye Ling could answer, she heard Duan Yu whisper in her ear, "Someone is coming."
Ye Ling turned her head and saw a group of people in black uniforms approaching them quickly.
The leader was none other than Zhao the Blacksmith, who had a grudge against her in the Mecha King Challenge.
Zhao the Blacksmith walked up to Elder Xuanqing and bowed respectfully: "Elder, I have been ordered to stop Ye Ling from obtaining the materials in the ruins."
He stared at Ye Ling with a cold gaze, a sneer on his lips: "Ye Ling, I didn't expect you to dare to trespass into the ruins of cultivation. Let's see how you can escape this time!"
Ye Ling felt as if she and Su Ran were connected by WiFi, and there was an inexplicable sense of intimacy.
